Sphere over Cave City, AR
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Outside enjoying the evening view, and at the corner of my view appeared a rather quick, but steady light. It was very bright, so there was no way it was a satellite. It was also lower in orbit, roughly half a mile from where I was, under the moon. After I observed it for a couple seconds, it accelerated in speed and disappeared (the light was off almost like a switch).
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #172181). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.
